Avatar utilization creation cram school "AVATAR LEARN" / Lecture by iPresence Fujinaga

In the field of tourism, which can be said to be one of the main industries in Oita Prefecture, we are trying to establish a new tourism model for inbound and distant tourists.For example, we plan to use concierge avatars to create a system that enables proactive customer approaches in both the real and digital worlds.

ItsSupporting the creation of an avatar business in Oita PrefectureWith HELLO FUTURE!AVATAR LEARN” was held.

For those who are considering introducing or further utilizing Telerobo, we have established Telerobo for the purpose of having them feel familiar with Telerobo through lectures and hands-on experience, and providing advice on how to use it and support until its introduction. Double3, kubi, Telepii, etc. were prepared at the venue.

Fujinaga gave an overview of iPresence's remote robot business, introduced examples, and explained how to operate temi and Double3.In the latter half, the content is to have the students operate and touch the actual telerobo machine.Fujinaga has been involved in telerobo sales and business development since 2015.I have added a detailed explanation based on my experience.

During the lecture, I used a desk-top telerobo kubi to connect the iPresence staff in Hyogo Prefecture with the event venue.We asked the staff to operate the kubi from a remote location, and talked with Fujinaga while moving the left, right, up, and down monitors.

In addition, we remotely connected to temi, which was installed at the exhibition venue of the "Japan Drone Exhibition 2023" being held at Makuhari Messe in Chiba Prefecture, so that the students could experience remote control of Telerobo.While watching the video of the exhibition site sent from temi at the venue, the participants had a conversation with the staff at the exhibition venue and had the experience of visiting the exhibition remotely.

I want to liven up the region with a telepresence avatar robot

This year's AVATAR LEARN was attended mainly by people in charge of companies and public organizations in Oita Prefecture.As for the impression of those who operated Telerobo, rather than touching something new, it seemed that they were carefully checking the operability and functions and comparing them with existing models.

Many of the participants in the event had already introduced Telerobo or had experience in demonstration experiments.It seems that the purpose is to explore further usage methods and update demonstration experiments.iPresence also received requests for temi and Double3 and hints for service improvement.of participants"I want to liven up the area with Telerobo (Avatar)"I could feel the enthusiasm.

Remote-controlled robots such as Telerobo avatars have telepresence technology that makes them feel as if they exist there, which is a solution that can be more useful in rural areas. iPresence is actively engaged in lecture activities and usage support so that telerobo can be widely used in the world.
